Ted ZanidakisI will try to define Scot's excellent explantion in terms of actual numbers....
My experience, in hunting down Kleinow (Bos) and Smith (Chi & Bos) cards during the course of
putting together my 4 t206 sets, is for every time I looked for a Piedmont 460, Sweet Cap 460,
or Sovereign 460 (which I never found....these two cards were not printed with Sov)....I found
on an average of 4 - 6 Polar Bear versions for any other given Tob. back.
This really frustrated me when I was putting together my Piedmont-only set. Smith was virtually the
last card I found with a P460 back. And also, frustrated me with my 2nd set, since I was trying to
put together an Ex to ExMt set. And, the typical Polar Bear Tob. staining was a hinderance to this
goal. Now one might say my experience is just anectdotal; however, surveys on these two cards will
reinforce this.
